Original Toronto Star caption: Picking up a rose; Susanna Hartel shows what she can do with the plastic battery-powered hands she was fitted with six months ago by the Workmen's Compensation Board. The 46-year-old mother of two had her hands served by a punch press five years ago and for three years used hooks. Her $4;200 myo-electirc hands respond to commands from her brain and enable her to write.
